The library will aid in building complex cryptographic techniques to match the needs of the bourgeoning DeFi sector.
On Monday, Coinbase, the fourth-largest cryptocurrency exchange globally by trading volume, announced the creation of a novel cryptographic library, Kryptology, as a compendium of tools for blockchain developers. These include secure, audited, and easy-to-use APIs, as well as a repository of common issues and lessons learned throughout the history of crypto.Without cryptography, cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin would be digital lines of code that anyone can copy/paste.
